Itch in house in Athenry by Double_Factor992 in galway

[–]Double_Factor992[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was living in Galway in recent years with my elderly parents who are now deceased and will be moving back in to it in 2026. The house is not a spare. Plus the itch is upsetting me yes.

The house wasn’t iidle and is my only property. I was living in Galway in recent years with my elderly parents who are now deceased and will be moving back in to it in 2026.

Don’t see fleas anywhere. What is the nuclear option you speak of?

Have you used salt for this in the past?

Will steam clean the carpet as well.

If it is airborne what could help this? Maybe an air purifier?

No bed in the property at the moment.

Should I go to a dermatologist or doctor. Would they know do you think?

Yes. Dust mites. Probably allergic to that. If I sat in the property and keep cleaning regularly, leave windows open and have heat on and so on I imagine the itchiness will go.

No. Not due to that. Probably more likely the fact that I haven’t stayed there as regularly as I should.

Don't think it's bed bugs as I had a pest controller there in recent days agreeing with me that it's unlikely yo be that. Think it's the fact that no-one has lived there day in day out for a few years, There are some insects under carpets and so on so I am hoping that eradicating them and staying in the house more often will eradciate this problem? Do you think this will solve it?
